System Architect

Company Description

Sprouts.AI is an AI native “Generative Demand Platform” disrupting the $1.1T B2B GTM category. It helps B2B demand gen and sales teams generate qualified pipeline and increase deal conversion rates with real-time account and contact level intelligence signals, recommending next best action and execution via AI agents. We are solving the problem of inefficient GTM driven by dirty data ecosystems, multiple siloed legacy tools, large GTM teams, static ICPs and poorly defined segments. Current customers have seen a significant improvement in data coverage and quality, 3X increase in qualified leads, over 50% increase in SDR/BDR efficiency, and a 30%+ reduction in martech tool cost.

Job Overview:

We are seeking an experienced hands on Platform Architect to lead the design and implementation of scalable, secure, and reliable technology solutions. The ideal candidate should have deep expertise in modern enterprise technologies, including multi-cloud platforms, full-stack development, distributed computing, distributed streaming system, data lakes, caching, real-time & batch processing, and AI/ML Ops.

The candidate must demonstrate the ability to recommend architecture improvements, evaluate new technologies, propose effective solutions, conduct proof of concepts (PoCs), and develop architectural diagrams aligned with strategic business goals.

Key Responsibilities:

● Architectural Strategy & Roadmap: Define and implement enterprise architecture standards, best practices, and guidelines. Align technology solutions with business goals, ensuring scalability, performance, security, and reliability. Document trade offs between different architecture and design patterns.

● Solution Design: Design end-to-end solutions leveraging modern technologies in Cloud platforms such as Distributed streaming e.g.Kafka, Microservices architecture Kubernetes. Extensive knowledge and hands on experience in full-stack applications. Architect scalable and resilient data lakes, caches and data pipelines for big data processing and powering AI solutions to house both structured and unstructured data.
